Description:
Test main.ndb_autodiscover.test doesn't work on Windows due to 'grep' call:

t/ndb_autodiscover.test:547:--exec $NDB_TOOLS_DIR/ndb_drop_table --no-defaults -d test `$NDB_TOOLS_DIR/ndb_show_tables --no-defaults | grep BLOB` >> $NDB_TOOLS_OUTPUT 2>&1 || true

How to repeat:
Try to run this test on Windows without Cygwin or GNU utilities:

perl mysql-test-run.pl --force ndb_autodiscover

'grep' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Suggested fix:
Remove the dependence on grep while keeping the efficacy of the test.

Will be disabling this test on Windows as part of my fix for:
Bug #38831	11 test cases fail on Windows due to missing commands

Test will be disabled until the grep and any other Unix-isms can be removed.

    WL#9185 MySQL Cluster support for new DD

    Remove test ndb_team.ndb_autodiscover which test that table should be
    resurrected after removing .frm files. There are no .frm files anymore
    and thus test is not relevant.
